BEST EXPLORING COMPANION! Sayu Updated Guide! | Genshin Impact

[@aliceinthelandofdawn9727]

She made sumeru desert exploration bearable

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Her and Yelan were zoom zoom for days.

Love Sayu for over world rolling. She snores while flying soooo quite!

A really enjoyable team is shatter Sayu: A combination of Xinquis Q and Chongyuns E will keep enemies Frozen. Sayu being a claymore user will "shatter" her attacks, but so long as those skills are still up they will immediately get refrozen. Shatter damage is based on EM, so stacking EM on Sayu allows her to be the driver on that team, keeping enemies Frozen and healing your team when needed but also hitting 10k+ shatters if built reasonably well in addition to her regular normal attack and skill/burst damage. 4th slot is flexible, but I tend to use an EM buffer like Sucrose or C6 Diona. Not gonna be optimal damage, but a very fun take on the usual freeze teams, allowing Sayu to take advantage of a high EM build for a pretty effective amount of additional damage!

Thank you, she is adorable, I just got her a day ago, and finally got enough lizard tails for the quick food thing. Very helpful guide, I plan on leveling her up, she is too cute.

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

The quick food thing? I hope it goes well!

[@BoutTime73]

Quick food?

[@kristad9016]

@@BoutTime73 I had to look it up, it’s called NRE, a gadget you get from getting from Mondstadt reputation to level 5. It takes 20 lizard tails, 20 chaos circuits, 50 electro crystals and 50k mora! I can’t spare the chaos circuits from weapon ascensions to make this thing. But I have all the lizard tails now, thanks to Sayu!

I have Klee + Anemo Traveler + Sayu + Diona for my exploration team. Klee gets a total of 20% running speed from anemo team + her weapon, so I can cycle between the two when moving around. Klee's movement speed bonus also effects swimming/gliding. So it's just so easy getting around. I've been planning on building Sayu around Golden Troupe Artifact Set but I've just not found pieces that work with her yet. I've thrown together a quick Golden Troupe set on her just to see how much her Elemental Skill Dmg would be noticable and even without a proper set she was doing more Elemental Skill damage than she did with her 'best in slot' set meaning it's possible that Golden Troupe may become Sayu's new best in slot Artifact set, just Sayu isn't a priority so I think has gotten ignored when it comes to Golden Troupe testing. Golden Troupe basically I gave her an atk% sands and goblet instead of EM or Anemo like you would do with her other best in slot (If you have C6 Sayu of course). Normally EM would do more dmg on Sayu but with Golden Troupe you can do more dmg than prior sets even without EM. I think this could make Sayu so much more useful, as you can stack Atk% for maximum healing and still do good damage, not god tier damage but good damage. I was getting some 24k final kicks at the end of her Elemental Skill roll. I honestly can not wait to try Sayu with a "Proper" Golden Troupe set with good substats and it's the substats I've had a hard time getting with the set which is why I still have her using her earlier artifact set still as despite doing more damage already with Golden Troupe, the other set is still more utilitarian.

[@gelo1309]

Hehe I sometimes don't like her kit but I just use her in exploration so just her being level 1 is enough for me. Hope to see your next guides and showcases

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Whoa living life on edge, thanks for be a regular viewer!

[@gelo1309]

@@calamitygenshinimpact1255 hehe I personally want to see an updated raiden build. I don't know, I can't get enough of her hehe my favorite unit

[@xdragon2k]

4-star Zoom-zoom doesn't restore stamina while zooming (Sayu, Kirara, Lynette). Yelan and Wanderer can restore stamina while zooming.

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

True, it's unfortunate!

[@Thatmagicpanda]

I think Lynette does restore stamina

[@xdragon2k]

@@Thatmagicpanda Yeah, I guess Lynette does restore stamina while in her hold E. However, her run distance is so short with very long cooldown thus still nerfing her vs 5-stars one.

[@kirimigi2578]

I literally got sayu and tried to watch on yt for build 😂 thank you for the video...

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

I have psychic timing!

[@liiich6175]

Sac sword for exploring is the best when you roll into an enemy for a 2nd proc to roll again

[@icecityx1221]

Especially with R4, 70% chance is a near guarantee while exploring

[@jotchy_]

I built the full on ATK Sayu and soon I will triple crown the sleepy child! Great video and best wishes! (Talking Stick slaps on her, although not f2p...)

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Talking stick?

[@jotchy_]

@@calamitygenshinimpact1255 Yeah! It’s been added to the Battle Pass weapon list, usually I wouldn’t recommend the BP but it both matches Sayu’s splash art and works with her abilities perfectly!

[@Kawaii_Meow]

@@calamitygenshinimpact1255 I have a question, should I go for the golden troupe set or the viridescent set? Bc I generally want to make sayu a very strong character, I don’t really need healing since I use Barbara as my healer. You probably already mentioned it in the video but I lost my brain cells so I can’t think anymore. :’)

[@gachacaspa]

Bloodstained is possibly better em option than rainslasher. Its em just as high and it passive more relevent when paired with xiangling

[@gouther267]

Is 2 piece vv and 2 piece golden troupe or 4 piece golden troupe better for sayu dps

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Yeah that's probably her best artifact sets for DPS

[@pepita2437]

Will the new Fontain craftable be good for Sayu? It has a lots of ATK, and it's passive activates trough healing. (which Sayu can do)

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Ooh this is good, the craftable claymore is another good option for Sayu! Guess I'll have it on the updated updated guide in the future lol.

[@xanderstille8616]

shes my main dps in floor 11 but at 12 i had to change sadly

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Yeah same, floor 12 is a bit too much for her!

[@tsugikuni.michikatsu]

nice guide! btw, do you think xingqiu, beidou and layla good supporrs for a physical kaeya? I use fav on beidou and I don't have fischl.

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

What does this have to do with Sayu? I don't recommend building Kaeya for physical, instead focus on building him as an offield DPS. But if you insist on physical, then remove Xingqiu as his constant hydro application will get in the way of Superconduct. If you don't have Fischl then use a different Electro, Kuki Shinobu, Dori, are ok too as your team is lacking a healer.

[@tomekpiatek88]

No dendro electro team?

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

I use one in the combat showcase.

[@T0XIN21]

So, fellow sayu main... WolfGravestone or Mailed Flower ??

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

I think both are pretty good, if you don't have anyone else to use the WGS on then give it to Sayu!

[@ranges787]

sayu cloud retainer yelan and kirara will be best overworld team ever

[@AmenoMagatsu]

I just need sayu to VV and keep my keqing aggrevate alive (i don't have kazuha)

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Roll Sayu! Roll!

[@irispark1381]

Sayu is my most used character. She is also not built. 😂

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

Hah! I'm mostly lazy / building other characters. She's good enough for me, I use other teams for Spiral and stuff.

[@sammerjammer1600]

It's a Calamity Panda talking about a Trash Panda. I wish I liked her better I just find her hella annoying.

[@calamitygenshinimpact1255]

How is she annoying?!

[@sammerjammer1600]

@calamitygenshinimpact1255 her gameplay in fighting just feels real clunky to me the same as Dori
